Monopolar orientation of kinetochores at meiosis is enforced by COHESINS and their regulators, CENP-C, and the deSUMOylase SPF2 Open
The first division of meiosis is unique in its capacity to halve the ploidy of the future gametes. To this end, one key innovation compared to mitosis is the monopolar orientation of the pairs of sister kinetochores required for the proper…

HEIP1 is required for efficient meiotic crossover implementation and is conserved from plants to humans Open
Crossovers (CO) shuffle genetic information and physically connect homologous chromosomal pairs, ensuring their balanced segregation during meiosis. COs arising from the major class I pathway require the activity of the well-conserved grou…

The megabase-scale crossover landscape is independent of sequence divergence Open
Meiotic recombination frequency varies along chromosomes and strongly correlates with sequence divergence. However, the causality underlying this correlation is unclear. To untangle the relationship between recombination landscapes and pol…

The synaptonemal complex imposes crossover interference and heterochiasmy in<i>Arabidopsis</i> Open
Significance Meiotic recombination promotes genetic diversity by shuffling parental chromosomes. As observed by the very first geneticists, crossovers inhibit the formation of another crossover nearby, an elusive phenomenon called crossove…

AXR1 affects DNA methylation independently of its role in regulating meiotic crossover localization Open
Meiotic crossovers (COs) are important for reshuffling genetic information between homologous chromosomes and they are essential for their correct segregation. COs are unevenly distributed along chromosomes and the underlying mechanisms co…

The HEM Lines: A New Library of Homozygous Arabidopsis thaliana EMS Mutants and its Potential to Detect Meiotic Phenotypes Open
Genetic screens have been crucial for deciphering many important biological processes, including meiosis. In Arabidopsis thaliana, previous forward screens have likely identified almost all the meiotic genes that when mutated lead to a pro…
